No, but you're not wrong in assuming that I wasn't fully into it at the start, because evidently I wasn't.

So, i'm sort of on both sides of this because I know exactly where you're coming from.
Well I just don't get this at all. If it was a joke, why take recs? And why get upset about people slagging you off? All you had to say was, "Dudes! It was a joke thread and you all fell for it!" I don't think anyone took it as a joke thread; I certainly didn't.

You don't get satire, do you? What would be the point of a satirical thread you didn't take seriously for at least five minutes?

Course I get satire. It's delivered to my door every Wednesday by a guy called Jack. Nice guy. I tip well. But the point is, if this was a satirical thread, why did Ki make it seem like it was legit by actually reviewing albums? Did he change his mind and decide to make a go of it? And either way, whether it was serious or a joke, he really has no call to be getting his knickers in a twist about people slagging him off and upsetting him now that it seems to have ground to a halt.

Like, it's either a joke (in which case take the criticisms) or it isn't (in which case do wtf the thread title implies) --- it can't be both. Joke played out too long?
